A recent survey by First Onsite reveals that only 28% of Canadians have prepared emergency kits, despite increasing awareness of climate-driven disasters like wildfires and floods. While 75% know where to find official emergency alerts, just 38% feel prepared for weather-related emergencies, and only 36% know local evacuation routes. Canadians prioritize pets, phones, and cash when evacuating, but many lack basic preparedness measures. The survey highlights a gap between awareness and action, with two-thirds believing governments could improve disaster readiness. First Onsite encourages better planning and offers free resources to help close this preparedness gap.
